Lighting often goes overlooked as an easy way to update the look of a room… maybe it’s the cost, since lighting can go as high as the stars price-wise, or maybe it’s a an assumption that you would need to call in an electrician… whatever it is, overlook no more! I’m really excited to bring to…

Happy Friday! I missed last week as I was just coming home from a downright awesome trip with my husband to Naples, Florida to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. And I’m not going to lie; it’s a week later and I’m still a little bummed it’s over. Naples is beautiful, and I loved the…

Well, things are coming along at the Skinny House. Slowly but surely! We have a certain neighbor who keeps complaining to the town about our permit, and an inspector who seems to drop by at least every half hour. I was actually mentioning him to my GC when, lo and behold, he drives by. Speak…

So this was my office yesterday along with one of my more lazy co-workers… no complaints here! I’m working on the kitchen cabinet doors for the skinny house – more on that below! But we have paint! Paint is really the first thing that goes in where you start to see that shift from demolition…

Happy Friday! I’m so ready for a longer weekend with some good weather so we can enjoy the outdoors! I wanted to give you a quick update on the flip house, or the skinny house as I’m calling it…. after all, it is skinny! We are at that point where we are pretty much done…

The biggest part of this little bathroom reno was the new vanity. It was also the part that stressed me the most! I’ve never made a vanity before, much less designed one, so I really took the time to think through all the little nuances…. like how the top attached, how to work around the…

I have lots of love for transoms. I know, who doesn’t, right? When we built our downstairs bath, we added an opening in the shower wall to help let in more light. But it was always a little…. blah. I could never put my finger on it, but it didn’t strike my fancy. So…

You know how sometimes music lyrics can strike just the right chord with you just when you need it? That is what this song did for me. I was struggling with a personal issue in high school when the choir sang this song in church one Sunday. It was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. It…

Well, if you’ve been paying attention, it’s been a little while since I shared a flip house tour. It wasn’t because I forgot or because I was ignoring you, it’s because I wasn’t able to get into the house. The previous owners were still living there, and the past month has been an education in…
